Winding up dud corps long overdue decision

The Goa government has taken a very sensible decision to wind up all the non-performing and non- profitable State run corporations. While there are fully fledged departments to undertake their respective tasks, over the years parallel pointless Corporations have been created solely to rehabilitate politicians and allow them to merrily enjoy free perks and privileges at taxpayers expense. Infact Kadamba Transport Corporation and the Waste Management Corporation are the only two whose existence is justifiable. And possibly a Corporation to deal with the stray animals will be a huge benefit to the State as the stray dogs and stray cattle are an enormous menace to society. All the other corporations are an unnecessary huge burden on our debt ridden State and must be wound up in public interest. Fiscal accountability and responsibility has to be an ongoing sustained process with every paisa of the taxpayer very judiciously spent. Due to the follies of successive governments we have landed in this huge fiscal upheaval. It is now the responsibility of the authorities to work towards restoring Goa back on the road to economic prosperity.
